After the toxicity dissipated, Han Zhao ordered his subordinates to lead the horses over: "Let's go." ”

Shi Congyi wanted to help him get on the horse, but he waved his hand and pushed him away. Han Zhao jumped on the horse on his own, his waist straight, and the cold sweat on his forehead did not fade.

He is the commander of the army, and whenever he appears in front of the soldiers, he must be majestic, confident, and strong.

He is there, which is where the heart of the army is.

The group rushed to the front again.

Passing by Xie Jiatun, Han Zhao stopped his horse and went to see the giant tree standing at the mouth of the valley in person.

From the beginning, he was full of doubts: What is so special about this big tree that let the little junior sister intercede for it?

He summoned Captain Yang to ask a few words, and then sent him to invite the village elder.

The old man is over 60 years old this year, but he is deaf and clear-sighted, and he can't hide his repeated visions tonight. He is a good person, and it is not false to see the Hou Ye who defends the country, and he said the miracle of the giant tree again, and did not forget to add a sentence at the end: "Hou Ye, this tree really can't be cut." ”

After hearing this, Han Zhao thought thoughtfully: "What kind of tree is this?" At this time, he seemed to have a new understanding of the three words "can't be cut".

"Then it's not clear, and the ancestors didn't say it. ”

What the old man said was like nonsense, no wonder Captain Yang didn't think so. If it weren't for He Xiaokite's insistence, as well as the note that suddenly appeared earlier, Han Zhao wouldn't believe a word.

But now......

He sighed for a few breaths and instructed the village elder: "Go find a few people, they must be able to climb trees." ”

What kind of new requirement is this? The village elder was confused, but he complied with it.

It was still half an hour before dawn. In winter, the peasants didn't need to get up early, and the few peasants who were called were still yawning, so Han Zhao told them the requirements on the note, and then pointed to the big tree and said, "Climb up." ”

This official doesn't sleep at night, and he tosses them in a different way. The peasants looked at each other, but knew that their arms could not twist their thighs, so they still slumped into the tree.

It was not difficult to find the hollow in the tree, and a dozen pairs of eyes below saw them burrow into the hollow.

And then, it was a long, long time.

These people never showed up again, Han Zhao made a gesture to the guard, who quickly climbed up, went into the tree hole to take a look twice, and soon came down again.

His face was very strange: "Report, there is no one in the tree hole." ”

"No one. Han Zhao expected this result, but he subconsciously asked one more time, "Not one?"

"Nope. ”

"Interesting. "What the note says is true?

Shi Congyi stood to the side, seeing that his face and lips were still pale, knowing that although the toxicity on Han Zhao's body had been resolved, the damage to his body had not yet recovered.

The destructive power of this blood-sealing toxin to muscles and nerves is amazing, and even if the antidote is used in time, the loss is still caused, and it takes a little time to fully recover.

He couldn't help but say, "Master Hou will go and rest first! ”

"Not necessarily. Han Zhao raised his chin in the direction of the tree hole, "They're coming down." ”

Someone came out of the hollow in the tree. Shi counted from the wings, one, two, three, four, five.

"Hey, there's one more. ”

Four villagers entered, but five people came out.

Han Zhao had already waved his hand: "Come on, go up and help Father-in-law Tai down." ”

Yan Saburo stood on the high slope and looked down at Xie Jiatun's bright lights again: "Why did you change your mind again and stop killing Father-in-law Tai?"

After they received He Xiaoyuan, they rushed to Xie Jiatun, which was actually one step ahead of Han Zhao.

According to the agreement between the two parties, He Xiaoyuan saved Suo Luomu for them, and they transferred Tai's father-in-law to her.

However, when He Xiaoyuan walked here, he temporarily changed his mind again, and he didn't want to kill his father-in-law.

"I originally thought that the violent death of General Qian and the prison army would shake the hearts of the guards and make Han Zhao anxious. "If Gonggong Tai is killed as a prisoner, it will be a big blow to the morale of the guards, and Han Zhao will also be blamed and suspicious by the king.

This is based on common sense. Qu Yunhe shook his head: "The Weijun's worship of the Marquis of Zhenbei can offset the impact of the death of the eunuch on morale. ”

He Xiaoyuan nodded: "So I have figured it out now, it is really a big trouble for Han Zhao for people like Grandpa Tai to live." ”

Seeing her depressed face, Chitose leaned into Yan Saburo's ear and whispered: "It's so pitiful, I worked all night and didn't get anything done." "I helped them complete the task of the wooden bell.

Yan Saburo shook his head: "The two armies are fighting, how can any task be completed?"

Chitose snorted, "Yo, your elbow bent outward, and you started to speak for others?"

Before Yan Saburo could answer, He Xiaoyuan had already turned to them and said, "Come with me, we have to find a safe place to make a concession." ”

Chitose looked at the camp below: "That tree—"

"Han Zhao promised not to cut it, then he will definitely not cut it. He Xiaoyuan was very sure, "Let's go." ”

At this moment, there seemed to be another commotion below.

Several people looked at it, it was Tai Gonggong, who had just been rescued from the tree, who stretched out his hand and pointed to the tree, and his mouth opened and closed to speak. Chitose listened attentively for a few words, and his face was calm: "He asked Han Zhao to cut down this tree. ”

Yan Saburo Daqi: "Why?"

He said the kidnappers were clinging to the tree. As long as you cut it down, the kidnappers, well, that is, us, will definitely show up. "Father-in-law Tai's hair is disheveled, and he is no longer as neatly dressed as when he first arrived in Xiejiatun. He soaked in water first, and then was gagged and tied up in a small world for several hours, and everyone was lost, and I don't know how to have the face to act as a supervisor in the future.

Probably because of this, he hated the kidnappers to the core, and insisted that Han Zhao catch them and kill them.

"That's right. The corners of He Xiaoyuan's mouth twitched, "It turns out that there is still a lot of things in this tree." ”

"Sure enough, Grandpa Tai likes to make extraneous branches. "If Yan Saburo only made a deal with Tai's father-in-law, after the latter returned to the army, he probably wouldn't let them handle it, and there was a high probability that he would repeat the current scene to force them to show up. At that time, he and Chitose had to find another way to keep the Sara realm.

This move was right, and he looked at Chitose: "And then?"

Zhenbei Hou refused, on the grounds that the tree sheltered Xie Jiatun. If it is cut down, if there is an avalanche flood in the back, I am afraid that the military town will not be able to escape. "Han Zhao, that man is very smart, whether he fooled Tai's father-in-law or really believed it, at least he said the truth.

He Xiaoyuan smiled: "I said that he will not regret what he promised." Thinking of the current confrontation between himself and Han Zhao, his smile faded again, "At least I won't regret it for the sake of a dead eunuch." ”

Seeing Zhenbeihou's reaction, Yan Saburo was also relieved: "Let's go." ”

￥￥￥￥￥

Father-in-law Tai rushed back to the tent angrily, and the little eunuch hurriedly poured him water and served tea.

After stuffing the dumplings in his mouth for most of the day, Father-in-law Tai had already had dry lips and scorched tongue, and he poured a few cups of tea before he exhaled.
